Mouse not working in X

["Richard Ingram" <richardingram@mindspring.com>]

Hi,

I'm using the out of the box VALinix/SGI/Gnu Debian at work, I installed X
and it will not work with the logitech mouse, you have to play with gpm and
X and get the right combination, I installed it at home about 3mnths ago and
got my Logitech trackball working OK. Trouble is I have forgoten what it was
I did and I need to know, I would boot up my machine at home but I have
since changed my graphics card and need to reinstall Debian as it auto boots
into X. I'm sure I found the solution on the web somwhere but it seems to
have gone. Anyone know the correct solution, is it gpm -R and /dev/gpmdev in
X or somesuch ?

Thanks for any help.

Richard.
